~Z.T.~ Detroit Lakes, Minn. The soundtrack to a long car ride is the most crucial aspect to making it successful. That’s why I stayed up until 2:30 a.m. burning CD’s even though I left my house before 5.

The Who- Live at Leeds: Andy said “The Who at 6:30 am?!” But it’s Tommy.

Paul McCartney Back in The U.S.: Quite possibly the best recording of live Beatles songs that exists. I can’t believe this isn’t a staple of every music fans collection.

Vampire Mix: Centered around a couple Vampire Weekend tracks, it has “Gumboots” “Got To Get You Into My Life,” “Big Me” “Nine in The Afternoon,” etc.

Shore’s mix: A fantastic 40+ song mix with everything from “Dear Mr. Fantasy” to “Mother” to “Aint Too Proud to Beg” Only one veto: “Hotel California.” The Eagles suck.

The Name of This Band is The Talking Heads, Beck’s Modern Guilt

I’d been driving about 9 hours and Andy was drifting off to sleep again. I decided to test him. I put in a beginner’s Ween mix, seeing if he’d complain. He didn’t say one word. We both knew that if he said a word about what I put on, he’d have to start driving. So I got to listen to Ween.

Then my instructions were “just play songs we can sing a long to. “Another Piece of My Heart” was probably the funniest one. We both do a mean Janis. I really need to do Karaoke on stage as soon as I get home.
